Ths Herald, of last week, publishes
an article from the Cincinnati Gazeile,
headed "Collecting Liquor Bills," and
publishing it of course endorses it,
which closes by reflecting upon a Uni
ted States Court for holding that a
State can prohibit trade in an article
which the United States makes a
source of revenue; or, in other words,
for holding that the Liquor Laws of
Ohio cannot be made null and void by
the United States making the vendors
of Liquor pay a special license for fol
io wir.g their business.
We take it for granted that the edi
tors, both of the Gazette and Herald,
knew full well that the Court in ques
tion, by so doing, followed but in the
beaten track of the well settled juris-!
prudence of this country, and that
their only object in publishing such an j
article was to attract unto themselves
the support of the Liquor Vendors of
their respective localities. The Heraldt

for . A privilege of selling Liquor ; and,
courting as they are ths whisky ele

such an article would be one of the
best means of securing their favor.
While it is a fact much to be regret
ted that Uncle Sam is raising $60,000,
000 of his revenue off of the crimes and
wretchedness of the people by licens
ing persons to retail hell and damn v
lion to ih
eir neichbors, yet it is not
true that he thereby licenses any one
to violate any State Law,' and if they
do so Uncle Sam's Courts are right in
saying they must suffer the consequen
ces. It looks bad for newspapers, like the
